Masonry In Apple Creek, Ohio

Your Apple Creek Masonry Contractor

Apple Creek is a village of about twelve hundred people sitting right where Wayne County's farm country starts to turn into Amish country, and the work here reflects both. In the village it is chimneys, porches, steps and foundations on homes that have been standing a long while. Head out Apple Creek Road in any direction and it becomes barn foundations, silo pads and outbuildings. The Johnny Appleseed Festival is the weekend everybody is in town, and it is a good reminder of how much of this village is original brick and stone.

Cougar Masonry brings the full trade to Apple Creek: new brick, block, and natural or cultured stone, chimney rebuilds and repair, retaining walls and patios, tuckpointing and restoration, block foundations and building erections, and basements and new additions. One crew handles your project start to finish, with a free written estimate up front and a final walkthrough at the end.

Around Apple Creek the ground does a lot of the damage. Heavy clay soils hold water against a foundation wall through the whole freeze and thaw season, and the pressure has to go somewhere. That is why so much of the repair work here is foundation and retaining wall work rather than cosmetic brick. On the farm side, the demands are simply heavier: a footer under a machine shed or a hoop building carries loads a house never sees, and it has to be poured and laid to spec or it will tell on you within a few years.
